john boehner after the fiscal cliff said you vt gotten all of your revenues that's all you are getting. but it seems to me if i remember right that at the end of that bill right before they got ready to pass it didn't they tack on like four or five amendments that gave loopholes to like nascar and a bunch of other ultra rich people? >> yeah. >> the government will bring in a few billion, but let's be honest here. with boehner talking about how the president got the tax increases he wanted that's a lie on several levels. the bush tax cuts were supposed to expire in 2010. number 2 under president obama, i hate to tell ya but over 80% of the bush tax cuts were made permanent. so where is the revenue. and all obama was talking about is closing loopholes which is exactly what governor romney talked about in a vague way last year. >> stephanie: exactly. hi pam. >> caller: hi all. love your show. >> stephanie: thank you. >> caller: i have been listening to the conversation about fine fine and ted cruz and i have to say dianne feinstein is awesome. >> stephanie: yeah. >> caller: there are many

listen to what speaker john boehner who of course is from portman's home state of ohio said. he said, senator portman is a great friend and ally and the speaker respects his position but continues to think that marriage is between a man and a woman. that was speaker boehner's spokesman. that is still very much the feeling inside the republican party. i want you to listen to what the former republican presidential candidate, probably future presidential candidate rick santorum said about this. >> i'm not too sure that the rationale behind what senator portman was doing is something that has broad application to the debate. you know, the fundamental principles that attach to the institution of marriage really haven't changed as a result of that personal story. we need to look at what's right, what's right for the american public and more importantly what's right for children. we'll continue to write for those things. >> basically senator santorum is saying he totally disagrees with senator portman on this sensitive issue. >> he absolutely is. >> he is not changing his position
